Heterosexual love, marriage and reproduction have always occupied an ambivalent place in settler colonies like Australia. While reproduction of the 'right' sort of settlers is imperative to the numerical increase of the colonizing population, indigenous peoples' reproduction is more problematic. This is in distinct contrast to many 'plantation' colonies, where the reproduction of a working or slave class of indigenous peoples is desirable for the colonizing powers who wish to exploit their labour (Wolfe 1994, p. 93). Because the validity of the settler colonial state is predicated on denying the very existence of its indigenous owners, settler colonies have, historically, sought to eliminate indigenous peoples in any way that they could, replacing them on the land with settlers. Patrick Wolfe has referred to this aspiration as the 'logic of elimination' (Wolfe 1994).KeywordsIndigenous PeopleAboriginal PeopleAboriginal WomanSettler ColonialRomantic IdealThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
